Care and Maintenance

Ensure that the main power ‘ON/OFF’ switch of the heater is switched OFF and the unit is disconnected from the power outlet before cleaning.

Use a clean, dry cloth to clean the external surfaces of the heater. If the heater has collected dust or dirt inside the unit or around the elements, have the unit cleaned by a qualified service agent. Do not operate the heater in this condition.

Do not attempt to open the case of the heater at any time as there are no customer serviceable parts inside. When not in use, store the heater (preferably in its original box) in a cool, clean and dry location.

Cleaning the Filter

Your Kambrook Ceramic Tower Heater comes with a mesh filter located at the rear of the heater to help keep dust and debris away from the working parts. It is recommended to regularly check your heaters filter for clogging and dust build up. The filter should be checked after every use to ensure efficient heating performance.

Always switch the main ‘ON/OFF’ switch of the heater to OFF, then disconnect from the power outlet prior to removing the filter for cleaning.

To access the filter, ensure the heater is in the upright position and then remove the filter cover by pulling down on the two release levers at the top of the cover and then carefully pull out the cover until it is completely free from the heater.

It is then necessary to separate the mesh from the filter cover. Once separated, shake both the filter cover and the mesh filter into a rubbish receptacle until all fine dust particles and debris are removed. Wipe over with a soft, dry cloth if required to remove particles.

To replace, reinsert the mesh filter to the filter cover, align the two tabs at the back of the filter cover with the two holes at the back of the heater and then press down on the cover until it “clicks”.

Hints & Tips to Retain Heat in Your Home

Don’t overheat your home. The temperature of a heated room in winter should be 18–21°C.

Your heater will work more efficiently if you stick to Kambrook’s recommended clearance spaces.

Choose the right size heater for the room type you want to heat.

Zone off unoccupied rooms by closing doors and only heat the main living areas. Fit window coverings like curtains to halve winter heat loss.

Put draft stoppers, such as a rolled up towel, at the bottom of outside doorways to keep out cold air.

Keep the heat in and the cold out by installing wall and ceiling insulation.

Avoid placing items too close to the heater (both at the front and back) for optimal air flow.
